Husband is drinking less
It's weird. I wonder if it has been a peer pressure thing for him over the years. He doesn't have a problem with alcohol but we usually would start drinking around 5:30.. I'd sneak sips straight from the bottle when he was in the other room or make my drinks a little stronger, and he was usually done after 2 or 3 regular drinks. Occasionally 4 but he never got drunk. Seems lately since I quit he's been either drinking only one or none at all. I'm impressed. I guess it was a social thing for him. I never worried that he had a problem but it's nice to see that me quitting is rubbing off on him. I don't think he's been actively reducing intake but it's more of a, hm... I'm drinking alone, that's no fun.

Gerald Ford quit drinking when Betty Ford went into recovery. He said he never really enjoyed it really or cared one way or another, he just drank to go along with his wife so she wouldn't be drinking alone.
